I just bought another g body and since have been lurking the site so I decided to finally make an account and start posting. In the past I've had an 86 Monte Carlo LS and an 84 El Camino. Now I have my hands on an 86 Cutlass 442. It's got a 350sbc, very mild cam, and a whole lot of jerryrigging that I have to fix.
She's in the shop now. I don't know how to do much of the work. I want to learn how to do a lot of the work myself from this one while it has the 350 in it. I want to go big block by next year (probably still Chevy). An electric fan is being put on it right now to get rid of the clutch fan and it's getting a new power steering pump because that went out the moment I pulled the car into my neighborhood. Next step is to fix all the wiring and get all the guagues working because that's bugging the hell outta me.
Plans for the future are BBC, paint, a posi rear end (the previous owners son pulled the rear end out and put a v6' gears on it), the little things here and there. At the end it's going to be a fun little daily driver.
My other daily driver is going to get the 350 out of this car when I get ready to swap the big block. It's a beater Volvo 940. That'd be fun 😉
so..... yeah 🙂
